Cell Characteristics
Lesson Outline
We learned the differences between the eukaryotic and prokaryotic cell. We learned that the cell is the smallest structural unit of all living things. Then we learned that a prokaryote cell is a single-celled organism that does not have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles and the DNA is located in the cytoplasm. All bacteria and archaea are prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have DNA contained in a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Animals, plants, protists, and fungi are eukaryotes. Most eukaryotes are multicellular except amoebas and yeast which are unicellular. Next we created a Venn diagram to understand the similarities and differences between the two cells. Then we built a eukaryotic and prokaryotic cell pocket and put the names of different cell organelles in the appropriate cell pocket to help us remember the differences between them. We performed a few other activities to document what we learned.
